Down In The Tube Station At Midnight by The Jam
Please rate/comment
Intro: Am D X2
Verse 1:
Am D Am D Gmaj7
The distant echo of faraway voices boarding faraway trains
Am D Am D Gmaj7
To take them home to the ones that they love and who love them forever
Am D Am D Gmaj7
The glazed, dirty steps repeat my own and reflect my thoughts
Am D Am D
Cold and uninviting, partially naked
G Bm C D
Except for toffee wrapers and this morning's papers, Mr. Jones got run down
G Bm C D
Headlines of death and sorrow, they tell of tomorrow, madmen on the rampage
G Bm C D
And I'm down in the tube station at midnight, oh oh oh oh oh
Break: Am D X2
Verse 2:
Am D Am D Gmaj7
I fumble for change and pull out the Queen smiling, beguiling
Am D Am D Gmaj7
I put in the money and pull out a plum behind me
Am D Am D Gmaj7
Whispers in the shadows, gruff blazing voices, hate in waiting
Am D Am D
Hey boy they shout, have you got any money
G Bm C D
And I said I've a little money and a take away curry, I'm on my way home to my wife
G Bm C D
She'll be lining up the cutlery, you know she's expecting me, polishing the glasses and pulling out the cork
G Bm C D
And I'm down in the tube station at midnight, oh oh oh oh oh
Break: Am D X2
Verse 3:
Am D Am D Gmaj7
I first felt a fist, and then a kick, I could now smell their breath
Am D Am D Gmaj7
They smelt of pubs and Wormwood Scrubs and too many right wing meetings
Am D Am D Gmaj7
My life swam around me, it took a look and drowned me in its own existence
Am D Am D
The smell of brown leather, it blended in with the weather
G Bm C D
It filled my eyes, ears, nose and mouth, it blocked all my senses, couldn't see, hear, speak any longer
G Bm C D
And I'm down in the tube station at midnight, oh oh oh oh oh
G Bm C D
I said I was down in the tube station at midnight, oh oh oh oh oh
Drum Break and train noise
G Bm C D
The last thing that I saw as I lay there on the floor was Jesus saves painted by an atheist nutter
G Bm C D
And a British Rail poster read have an awayday, a cheap holiday, oh do it today
G Bm C D
I glanced back on my life and thought about my wife 'cause they took the keys and she'll think it's me
G Bm C D
And I'm down in the tube station at midnight, the wine will be flat and the curry's gone cold
G Bm C D
I'm down in the tube station at midnight, oh oh oh oh oh
G Bm C D
Don't want to go down in a tube station at midnight, oh oh oh oh oh
G Bm C D
Don't want to go down in a tube station at midnight, oh oh oh oh oh
G Bm C D
Don't want to go down in a tube station at midnight, oh oh oh oh oh
G Bm C D
Don't want to go down in a tube station at midnight, oh oh oh oh oh
